ISPFCU

ISPFCU held its 2012 Annual Meeting Friday, June 29, 2012 at the Northfield Inn in Springfield, Illinois. Members in attendance were informed of the current financial state of the institution by the officials and management staff of the Credit Union.

Chairman Jim Aggertt reported on the tremendous volunteer base the Credit Union enjoys and the excellent cooperation and communication between those volunteers and the staff. Treasurer Terry Zeisset reported on the financial results from 2011 and stressed that although it was a challenging year ISPFCU remains financially strong and will remain that way into the future. Chief Executive Officer Megan Becker gave detailed information in regards to the challenges the organization faced as well as an overview of key growth and statistical information from 2011. Chairman of the Election Committee Gary Dodson presented the 2012 election results.

Preceding the conclusion of the Annual Meeting officials and management staff held an open forum where they addressed questions and comments from the members in attendance. Questions included:

  • Member experienced issues getting service at a credit union. It was determined that the credit union was not a Shared Branch participant and as such the member would have to use their debit card to get cash at the ATM. Staff told the members in attendance that if they ever experienced issues to please contact ISPFCU for assistance.

  • Member questioned why the Other Assets decreased in 2011. Management reviewed the figures and determined this reduction was due to pending mortgage loans which had been closed, but not yet sold to Fannie Mae as well as the sale of a foreclosed property during the 2011 year. These amounts totaled almost $800,000.

  • Member experienced issues when accessing his accounts at a Shared Branch participant credit union. Staff advised the member that they would check into the issue and told him to contact an ISPFCU representative if he experienced future issues.

After the conclusion of the open forum the members in attendance joined the officials and management staff for lunch and a raffle drawing.
